Getting to know Christopher Cook

Welcome! Thank you for reviewing my profile. I am thrilled that you are considering embarking on the journey of personal growth through therapy. I understand the difficulty in reaching out for assistance, and I hope to support you throughout this process. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of California, Berkeley, and have over five years of professional experience as a therapist. During this time, I have assisted people struggling with a broad range of emotional challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief. I also have extensive experience helping individuals manage substance use issues. My therapeutic approach is broad and adaptable. Since the human condition is complex, I believe it is essential to understand various therapeutic interventions to respond effectively to whatever a person needs. I have training in multiple treatment modalities, including behavioral therapies (e.g., Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), mindfulness, Psychodynamic Therapy, trauma-informed treatments, and Motivational Interviewing. The most crucial part of therapy, in my opinion, is the relationship between patient and therapist. I take pride in creating a space where you will feel comfortable being your open and earnest self. You will not have to hide within the space we create. Instead, you can allow your true self to come through, and we can fully explore your pain and suffering. The therapeutic relationship will be symbiotic, which I believe is the only way therapy can be successful. The decision to engage in therapy can be frightening. Finding the right therapist is often overwhelming. Congratulations on having the strength to face this daunting task. While I hope to support you through this process, I wish you good luck regardless of how you choose to proceed.
